There is no silver spoon. There are no tears, and there's nothing anyone can say that'll stop me from posting here.

Also what you probably don't know from reading the posts is that this had been a 12 year journey to gather what little information I do have about this canyon. And after talking with 3 of the FA parties, their decision was to not post it but suggested that I post what I have personally climbed. Now what I will not do is post anything t... more >>

Comments: We just climbed Maple last weekend, and while there were a lot of people, we didn't have any problem finding routes to send.

Comments: Ok, I'll admit. I don't know what any of these routes are called, or what their ratings are. That's what this place is for. If you know something is wrong, post a comment & I'll change it.
